Safety Brandon Bryant went unpicked during last Wednesday’s supplemental draft Donte Jackson Color Rush Jersey , but he was able to land a roster spot a short time later.

There were multiple reports last week that the Jets would sign Bryant and Bryant sent out a tweet to that effect as well. The Jets made it official on Monday with the announcement of Bryant’s signing and confirmation that 2015 second-round pick Devin Smith has been dropped from the roster.

Bryant played 37 games for Mississippi State before applying for the supplemental draft in the wake of being declared academically ineligible. He had 157 tackles and five interceptions in those appearances.

Jamal Adams and Marcus Maye are set to start at safety for the Jets with J.J. Wilcox, Doug Middleton, Terrance Brooks and Rontez Miles Youth Minkah Fitzpatrick Jersey , once he’s healthy, on hand as other reserve options.

The Chicago Bears might look for a pass rusher or help on the offensive line when the draft resumes Friday after taking Georgia linebacker Roquan Smith with the No. 8 overall pick.

The Bears grabbed a potential cornerstone defensive player in the first round Thursday rather than add another weapon for prized quarterback Mitchell Trubisky.

Chicago has one second-round pick Friday night, two fourth-rounders and one each in the fifth Nate Hairston Jersey , sixth and seventh. The Bears don't have a third-round selection.

Chicago had 42 sacks last season but let linebackers Pernell McPhee and Willie Young go. The Bears could also use a blocker, with guard Kyle Long recovering from multiple surgeries and guard Josh Sitton gone.
